I Absolutely Love the New iMac

Everything about it is absolutely stunning. I would buy it for the chrome arm alone!

An 800 MHz G4 processor?! With GeForce2?! That's just staggeringly amazing! Since when is Apple in the business with impressing us with performance specs?

It's beautiful, it's fast, and it's affordable (though the low end should be dropped by a few hundred dollars). I would buy one at the drop of a hat.

I agree, after seeing it from several different angles, the new iMac is gorgeous.

I love it too but don't your think that a 100mhz bus speed and ATA/66 is pure crap.

I have to Ditto that!

Why, oh why not a 133 bus at least! They always manage to hobble the machine in one way or another.
